Anderson's work is a taxonomic study of modern Absolutism. Absolutism has a dual character of being the ultimate rampart of the feudal order, but at the same time the state it creates provides a context for the development of capitalism, under the right circumstances.
Anderson demonstrates that, although you can have many of the econojic circumstances appropriate to capitalism - for example in early modern in Italy or Germany - without a centralising state, and its ability to create a national market, the emergence of capitalism is aborted.
Keynes's best known and most influential work.

This is the first of three volumes of Marx's second most famous work (the most famous is probably the Communist Manifesto, which he wrote with Friedrich Engels). This is the only volume that he actually prepared for publication. Volumes II and III were published by Engels, working from Marx's manuscripts, after Marx's death.
